Hi borgmeister and Welcome to the GameEx forums!

For those playing along, I believe this report is based on a potentially similar issue seen here.

@borgmeister: Thank you for providing an excerpt from your log. Having said that, it will likely be necessary to post the entire content of the log following the error occurring In order to glean the best troubleshooting information regarding this issue. Likewise please post a copy of your GameEx.ini. Instructions on how to access that information can be found here.

Thanks man!

To me it seems to be the whole log... it's so short because evidently GE crashes quite immediately.

A reinstallation over your existing one (your configuration will not get lost) could be worth a try.

Generally the log.txt will start with GameEx version and system info which is missing.

@Draco & null: sure, my apologies, I overlooked that!
